If you need help or advice with phpBB, please see <a href="#help">Section 3</a> below.</p> 130 131 <a name="i18n"></a><h3>2.i. Languages (Internationalisation - i18n)</h3> 132 133 <p>A number of language packs with included style localisations are available. You can find them listed in the <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/languages/">Language Packs</a> pages of our downloads section or from the <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/language_packs-25">Language Packs</a> section of the <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/">Customisation Database</a>.</p> 134 135 <p>For more information about language packs, please see: <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/languages/">https://www.phpbb.com/languages/</a></p> 136 137 <p>This is the <em>official</em> location for all supported language sets. If you download a package from a 3rd party site you do so with the understanding that we cannot offer support. Please do not ask for support if you download a language pack from a 3rd party site.</p> 138 139 <p>Installation of these packages is straightforward: simply download the required language pack, uncompress (unzip) it and via FTP transfer the included <code>language</code> and <code>styles</code> folders to the root of your board installation. The language can then be installed via the Administration Control Panel of your board: <code>Customise tab -> Language management -> Language packs</code>. A more detailed description of the process is in the Knowledge Base article, <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/how-to-install-a-language-pack/">How to Install a Language Pack</a>.</p> 140 141 <p>If your language is not available, please visit our <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewforum.php?f=566">[3.2.x] Translations</a> forum where you will find topics on translations in progress. Should you wish to volunteer to translate a language not currently available or assist in maintaining an existing language pack, you can <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/languages/apply.php">Apply to become a translator</a>.</p> 142 143 <a name="styles"></a><h3>2.ii. Styles</h3> 144 145 <p>Although we are rather proud of the included styles, we realise that they may not be to everyone's taste. Therefore, phpBB allows styles to be switched with relative ease. First, you need to locate and download a style you like. You can find them listed in the <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styles-2/">Styles</a> section of our <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/">Customisation Database</a>.</p> 146 147 <p>For more information about styles, please see: <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/styles/">https://www.phpbb.com/styles/</a></p> 148 149 <p><strong>Please note</strong> that 3rd party styles downloaded for versions of phpBB2 will <strong>not</strong> work in phpBB3. It is also important to ensure that the style is updated to match the current version of the phpBB software you are using.</p> 150 151 <p>Once you have downloaded a style, the usual next step is to unarchive (or upload the unarchived contents of) the package into your <code>styles/</code> directory. You then need to visit <code>Administration Control Panel -> Customise tab -> Style management -> Install Styles</code> where you should see the new style available. Click "Install style" to install the style.</p> 152 153 <p><strong>Please note</strong> that to improve efficiency, the software caches certain data. For this reason, if you create your own style or modify existing ones, please remember to purge the board cache by clicking the <code>Run now</code> button next to the <code>Purge the cache</code> option in the index page of the Administration Control Panel. You may also need to reload the page you have changed in your web browser to overcome browser caching. If the cache is not purged, you will not see your changes taking effect.</p> 154 155 <a name="extensions"></a><h3>2.iii. Extensions</h3> 156 157 <p>We are proud to have a thriving extensions community. These third party extensions to the standard phpBB software, extend its capabilities still further. You can browse through many of the extensions in the <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extensions-36">Extensions</a> section of our <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/">Customisation Database</a>.</p> 158 159 <p>For more information about extensions, please see: <a href="https://www.phpbb.com/extensions">https://www.phpbb.com/extensions</a></p> 160 161 <p><strong>Please remember</strong> that any bugs or other issues that occur after you have added any extension should <strong>NOT</strong> be reported to the bug tracker (see below). First disable the extension and see if the problem is resolved. Any support for an extension should only be sought in the "Discussion/Support" forum for that extension.</p> 162 163 <p>Also remember that any extensions which modify the database in any way, may render upgrading your forum to future versions more difficult.</p> 164 165 </div> 166 167 <div class="back2top"><a href="#wrap" class="top">Back to Top</a></div> 168 169 </div> 170 </div> 171 172 <hr /> 173 174 <a name="help"></a><h2>3.

The first thing you should do is check the <a href="FAQ.html">FAQ</a>, which covers a few basic getting started questions. If you need additional help there are several places you can find it.</p> 182 183 <a name="docs"></a><h3>3.i. phpBB Documentation</h3> 184 185 <p>Comprehensive documentation is now available on the phpBB website:</p> 186 187 <p><a href="https://www.phpbb.com/support/docs/en/3.2/ug/">https://www.phpbb.com/support/docs/en/3.2/ug/</a></p> 188 189 <p>This covers everything from installation to setting permissions and managing users.</p> 190 191 <a name="kb"></a><h3>3.ii.

Please do not post questions asking when 3.3 will be available, no release date has been set.</p> 228 229 <p>Those interested in the development of phpBB should keep an eye on the development forums to see how things are progressing:</p> 230 231 <p><a href="http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/">http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/</a></p> 232 233 <p>Please note that the development forums should <strong>NOT</strong> be used to seek support for phpBB, the main community forums are the place for this.</p> 234 235 </div> 236 237 <div class="back2top"><a href="#wrap" class="top">Back to Top</a></div> 238 239 </div> 240 </div> 241 242 <hr /> 243 244 <a name="bugs"></a><h2>5. Reporting Bugs</h2> 245 246 <div class="paragraph"> 247 <div class="inner"> 248 249 <div class="content"> 250 251 <p>The phpBB developers use a bug tracking system to store, list and manage all reported bugs, it can be found at the location listed below. Please <strong>DO NOT</strong> post bug reports to our forums. In addition please <strong>DO NOT</strong> use the bug tracker for support requests. Posting such a request will only see you directed to the support forums (while taking time away from working on real bugs).</p> 252 253 <p><a href="http://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3">http://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3</a></p> 254 255 <p>While we very much appreciate receiving bug reports (the more reports the more stable phpBB will be) we ask you carry out a few steps before adding new entries:</p> 256 257 <ul> 258 <li>First, determine if your bug is reproduceable; how to determine this depends on the bug in question. Only if the bug is reproduceable is it likely to be a problem with phpBB (or in some way connected). If something cannot be reproduced it may turn out to have been your hosting provider working on something, a user doing something silly, etc. Bug reports for non-reproduceable events can slow down our attempts to fix real, reproduceable issues<br /><br /></li> 259 <li>Next, please read or search through the existing bug reports to see if <em>your</em> bug (or one very similar to it) is already listed. If it is please add to that existing bug rather than creating a new duplicate entry (all this does is slow us down).<br /><br /></li> 260 <li>Check the forums (use search!) to see if people have discussed anything that sounds similar to what you are seeing. However, as noted above please <strong>DO NOT</strong> post your particular bug to the forum unless it's non-reproduceable or you are sure it’s related to something you have done rather than phpBB<br /><br /></li> 261 <li>If no existing bug exists then please feel free to add it</li> 262 </ul> 263 264 <p>If you do post a new bug (i.e. one that isn't already listed in the bug tracker) first make sure that you have logged in (your username and password are the same as for the community forums) then please include the following details:</p> 265 266 <ul> 267 <li>Your server type/version, e.g. Apache 2.2.3, IIS 7, Sambar, etc.</li> 268 <li>PHP version and mode of operation, e.g. PHP 5.4.0 as a module, PHP 5.4.0 running as CGI, etc.</li> 269 <li>DB type/version, e.g. MySQL 5.0.77, PostgreSQL 9.0.6, MSSQL Server 2000 (via ODBC), etc.</li> 270 </ul> 271 272 <p>The relevant database type/version is listed within the administration control panel.</p> 273 274 <p>Please be as detailed as you can in your report, and if possible, list the steps required to duplicate the problem. If you have a patch that fixes the issue, please attach it to the ticket or submit a pull request to our repository <a href="https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb">on GitHub</a>.</p> 275 276 <p>If you create a patch, it is very much appreciated (but not required) if you follow the phpBB coding guidelines. Please note that the coding guidelines are somewhat different between different versions of phpBB. For phpBB 3.2.x the coding guidelines may be found here: <a href="http://area51.phpbb.com/docs/32x/coding-guidelines.html">http://area51.phpbb.com/docs/32x/coding-guidelines.html</a></p> 277 278 <p>Once a bug has been submitted you will be emailed any follow up comments added to it. <strong>Please</strong> if you are requested to supply additional information, do so! It is frustrating for us to receive bug reports, ask for additional information but get nothing. In these cases we have a policy of closing the bug, which may leave a very real problem in place. Obviously we would rather not have this situation arise.</p> 279 280 <a name="securitybugs"></a><h3>5.i. Security related bugs</h3> 281 282 <p>If you find a potential security related vulnerability in phpBB please <strong>DO NOT</strong> post it to the bug tracker, public forums, etc.! Doing so may allow unscrupulous users to take advantage of it before we have time to put a fix in place. All security related bugs should be sent to our security tracker:</p> 283 284 <p><a href="https://www.phpbb.com/security/">https://www.phpbb.com/security/</a></p> 285 286 </div> 287 288 <div class="back2top"><a href="#wrap" class="top">Back to Top</a></div> 289 290 </div> 291 </div> 292 293 <hr /> 294 295 <a name="curbugs"></a><h2>6.
